TOP 10 WEREWOLF MOVIES
An American Werewolf in London (1981). This film still has one of the best human to werewolf transformation scenes ever done. Not bad, considering the movie was out in the early eighties. It even won an Academy award in the makeup category.
Underworld: Rise of the Lycans (2009). This was the third installment in the Underworld series (the other two could have made the list as well) and probably the most focused on the wolves, as the vampire/wolf war origins are established in this film with Lucian’s love for forbidden vampire Sonja. He later tells the other werewolves, “I’ve lived by their rules my entire life. I’ve protected them, envied them- and for what? To be treated like an animal. We are not animals! Is this want you want? We can be slaves, or we can be… LYCANS!”

JOHNNY DEPP IN DOCTOR WHO ADAPTATION?
Sources are reporting that a big screen version of Doctor Who, written by former showrunner Russell T. Davies, is slated for release in 2012. Those same sources are also reporting that Johnny Depp has been confirmed in the iconic role of The Doctor.

Davies and show producer Julie Gardner announced their departure from the BBC revival of the show for Los Angeles in 2008 in order to develop projects for BBC America. Though both were mum on the idea of adapting Doctor Whofor American audiences, it was eventually revealed that Torchwoodwas undergoing that very process.

Do you agree with the list of top 10 werewolf films? ‘The Howling’ scared the bejesus out of me when I first saw it. That transformation was something I never forgot. They also left out the 1981 classic ‘Wolfen’.
